Lisa is graduating from Kelso High School this year, I met up with her yesterday to do her photos. I have to say I was super excited to do her session! She had some great ideas going into the session, and I was more than willing to accomdate.
I always love the sessions where the seniors show up with their personality – the ones that have ideas and know what they want. As a photographer, I definately have my own ideas of how a session should go, but it’s all me and my art, and I can’t necessarily drag my clients personality out of them (though I sure try sometimes!) So when a client shows up and says “Hey, I want to wear a dress and jump in the river!” or ” I want to wear my converse and sit on a dumpster.” I’m super excited because not only am I taking a photo of them, I am taking a photo of who they are! I get an oppurtunity to capture something that embodies them. Those are the photos I love, those are the photos my clients love, and more than likely those are the ones I can’t wait to stick in my portfolio because they are just flat-out cool!
So if you’re booking a session with me and have ideas, share away! I can’t wait to hear them!!!!
Thank you Lisa! I hope you enjoy your preview!
